There are building and scaffolding works, and when being checked in, the friendly guy at reception assured me there should be no real issue with noise. I even booked an extra night there and then with him directly which was extortionate. The building works start at 8am which is reasonable if not a little annoying, however- the builders are on-site chatting and moving things around at 7am!!! To start the clanging and banging from 8. Basically i got little sleep, was very irritable and felt deceived with the price they charged for that night i booked directly. Otherwise, the room, need and sheets are very comfortable and the deep bath tub is lovely. Rathbone, like many other girls, talk a big game about reusing towels if hung up, but change them daily regardless.
